If your uvula isn't functioning properly, it can lead to issues such as difficulty swallowing, increased risk of choking, and potential problems with speech. The uvula plays a role in the gag reflex and helps prevent food and liquids from entering the nasal cavity during swallowing. Without its proper function, you may also experience an increased susceptibility to infections, as it helps trap pathogens. In severe cases, surgical intervention might be needed to address underlying issues.
